County Official Paper.
SATURDAY... APRIL 29, 1882
A dispatch from Grand Rapids, Michigan, brings the intelligences that a number of Chinamen have applied for citizen papers, and that they will undoubtedly be granted.
The veto message of President Arthur has been translated into Chinese by direction of the Six Companies, for circulation among Mongolians of the upper crust. The message occupies seven columns, each containing five columns of Chinese characters, which are lithograph facsimiles of the message as it appeared in the Chinese newspaper about two weeks after it was sent to Congress.
A curious and costly episode occurred at a fire in San Francisco a few days ago. The first hose company that arrived at the burning building attempted to get a stream of water, but though it was evident the hose was full of water, none came through the nozzle. Investigation showed that the nozzle was completely plugged up by a species of catfish, about eight inches in length, and before it could be removed considerable valuable time was lost.
That was as fine as it was a silly point that some of the wiseacres of the San Francisco Board of Education raised. The law says that no School Director shall be interested in any contract with the department. Director Dunn's daughter applid for a position in the department. It was objected to, and urged that she must be refused under the law quoted. Dunn replied that his daughter was over twenty-one years of age, and that he had no control over her. But the dullards of the Board insisted that the lady was proscribed by the law. A majority, however, voted them down. An old lawyer once said that a man ignorant of the principles of law will suggest more tech-
The Apaches of Arizona are on the warpath again, and their trail is marked with blood and desolation. The town of Galsayville, on the new Mexican line, is reported to have been destroyed by them on Tuesday afternoon, and thirty-five of the inhabitants killed. A similar number were killed at Clifton, and it is impossible to know the exact number of single murders which have been committed by the roving Indians. The military appear to be badly handled, and there is much criticism of the leaders. At a meeting of citizens in Tucson on Tuesday night, the following telegram was sent to President Arthur:
During the rejoicing incident to the grand military display announced to take place at Fortress Monroe, we beg to offer you, as a skeleton to sit at your banquet, the fact that nearly one hundred of our pioneers have within a few days, been wantonly murdered in cold blood by the devilish Apaches, whom a cruel and mistaken policy permits to survive their crimes. If some small portion of the expenditure incurred in your grand display could be devoted to such measures as would preclude the possibility of an increase in the list of our murdered dead, we would send greeting of gratitude and cheer in place of this message of our sorrow and helplessness and our desolateness.
The once great commercial house of A. T. Stewart & Co. of New York has been going from bad to worse for a long time, and the owners, Judge Hilton and Mr. Libby, now announce that all the property is for sale and that the business will be closed up as speedily as possible. The cause for this decline in a prosperous concern is not hard to find. Hilton, the manager, is evidently a conceited prig. He said, after Stewart's death, that he would increase the business tenfold; but every move he made was followed by disaster. He it was who ordered the manager of his hotel at Saratoga not to receive Jews as guests. This was less than five years ago, and Seligman, the New York banker, predicted that before five years expired, Hilton would rue his course. The prediction has been verified even sooner than

CAPT. FRED NORMAN, a Norwegian sailor, now in New York, announces that he intends to row across the ocean. His boat, which will be built under his own supervision, is to be about 12 feet long, 4 feet wide and from 2 to 2½ feet deep, partly covered, fore and aft. "I will take a drogue, or floating sea anchor," he says, "which will keep the boat's head to the wind while I catch snatches of sleep. I shall sleep only when the wind is ahead, for I still row when the weather is favorable. I expect to average about 30 miles a day, which would use up 100 days in crossing. I shall work all points to best advantage with regard to winds and currents. The Gulf Stream would be favorable, for I will scull along in the northern edge of it."
REPRESENTATIVE BERRY has introduced in the House and Miller in the Senate, petitions of a number of wine growers in California remonstrating against the passage of the bill now before the House taxing artificial sparkling wines $2 40 per dozen. Miller has also presented a petition of a number of temperance people of San Francisco opposing the Logan bill, which proposes to take the tax from the liquor traffic and use it for educational purposes. The petitioners say that it is better to have no education if it is to come by filling up prisons, making wrecks of humanity and peopling graveyards with the remnants of drunkards. Rosecrans has introduced a bill reciting that the Indians in the southern portions of California are practically civilized, industrious, peaceable and well-behaved, and settling the Indians of Los Angeles, San Bernardino and San Diego counties upon lands in severalty.
The terminus of the California Southern Railroad is at National City, three miles beyond San Diego, and the latter place is disquieted at rumors of the concentration of all the Company’s business at the terminus. The Sun of San Diego says: "We have it from a reliable source that the railroad company at no distant day will remove their office here to National City. The priceless and dimensionless hotel to be constructed at the latter place, has finally become a fixed object, and the contract has been signed by Stewart Bros. for its completion, the cost to and that the business will be closed up as speedily as possible. The cause for this decline in a prosperous concern is not hard to find. Hilton, the manager, is evidently a conceived prig.

This was less than five years ago, and Seligman, the New York banker, predicted that before five years expired, Hilton would rue his course. The prediction has been verified even sooner than was expected. The trade of the Jews, which Stewart had always cultivated, and which was one of the mainstays of the house, fell off from the day that Hilton promulgated his senseless, bigoted order, and the purse-proud fool doubtless now regrets in sack-cloth and ashes his attempt at proscription.
DARWIN, the noted scientist, is dead. He had suffered for some time from weakness of the heart, but continued at work to the last. He was taken ill Tuesday night of last week with pains in the chest, faintness and nausea. The nausea lasted more or less during Wednesday, and culminated in his death in the afternoon. He remained fully conscious until within a quarter of an hour of his death.

The terminus of the California Southern Railroad is at National City, three miles beyond San Diego, and the latter place is disquieted at rumors of the concentration of all the Company's business at the terminus. The Sun of San Diego says: "We have it from a reliable source that the railroad company at no distant day will remove their office here to National City. The priceless and dimensionless hotel to be constructed at the latter place, has finally become a fixed object, and the contract has been signed by Stewart Bros. for its completion, the cost to be the modest figure of ten thousand dollars. In addition, the road from National City to the Cajon has been commenced, a force of men and teams being employed in the building thereof. With these facts staring us in the face, coupled with the company's indifference to giving us proper depot facilities, can there be any doubt of the hostility of the California Southern railroad towards San Diego?"
A SAN FRANCISCO commission firm, writing to the Beekeepers' Association of San Diego county, makes the following suggestions, which will be read with interest by the apiarists of our own county. They say:
Take it on the whole, the consumption of comb honey west of the Rocky Mountains has always been light, and this has resulted, in a great measure, from the fact that small shipments to interior points throughout the coast always arrived in more or less of a "smashed up" condition, causing annoyance and loss to the purchaser, and in many instances resulting in a discontinuance of all further orders. Now, if the bee men, before setting the frames into the cases, will put a light rope handle on each side of the case, by boring a couple of holes, drawing the rope through and knotting it on the inside, it will afford a convenient handle for railroad employees and all others engaged in the transportation business, and will, to a large extent, prevent the breakage and careless handling resulting from the present style of case, which has to be picked up and carried like a baby to ensure its safety, and this is something that from experience we know only about one railroad man out of fifty will do. We are not sure but the box makers are the proper parties to attend to this, but that some one should see that it is done, can not be doubted.
GARDEN GROVE ITEMS.
Frank Rogers' big mill and pump is a success. He will have no trouble in irrigating all of his land with the supply he can receive from his well.
Mr. Farrington has just finished a tank for Mr. George Hough. It is a success.
Mr. Witham is erecting a windmill for J. E. Beatty.
Cy Gwinn is the happy father of a girl.
The warm weather has injured the growing crops, and if we do not have more rain soon many fields will hardly make hay.
Our school will close on May 11th. It is intended to have a school picnic in Santiago canyon on the 13th of May. A programme is being prepared by the school under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Handsaker, consisting of music, singing, declamations, dialogues, etc. All the patrons of the school seem satisfied with our teacher, and we hope to be able to retain him another year or longer. The attendance has greatly increased and the pupils are learning rapidly. The pupils and parents all seem interested in the progress of the school.
There seems to be no opposition to the proposition to vote bonds for the new school house, and before fall we will probably have as fine a school house as there is in the county outside of Los Angeles. The plan was made by Mr. J. Nelson.

NOTES OF TRAVEL.
EDITOR GAZETTE:—It was on a bright morning in April, 1882, that a one-horse conveyance might have been seen wending its way among the hills and along the grades of Santa Ana canyon. The hills were bright with rich green verdure interspersed with the lovely hues of our variegated flora. A balmy breeze from the west tempered the heat of the sun. The birds sang among the branches of the trees, the bees hummed amid the flowers. All nature was gay and beautiful.
The vehicle contained your correspondent, his wife and two children, seeking health and recreation among the orange groves of San Bernardino county. Unfortunately the roads were not as good as they should be, and on the grades in some places the land was so high on the inside of, the grade that the wagon would tip up towards the down side in such an alarming manner that the matron would insist on getting out and carrying the youngest child along the grade, but an end came at last to the grade and the canyon, and the gnats, which I forgot to mention. They were as plentiful as the bees, or more so, and were more annoying than it seems possible for such a small and fragile insect to be. They got in our eyes and ears and noses and hair and whiskers. I mean my whiskers, the rest did not have any; and after we had killed a few millions there seemed to be just as many left.
We stopped at the head of the canyon, heated some coffee, ate our lunch and fed our horse, and then made a start for River-side. We met a native driving a wagon. He had been peddling or doing some business of that kind and we supposed he would know the distances of places in the vicinity. We asked the distance from where we were to Riverside and he said twenty-two miles. We thought he was stretching it a little, but we wanted to know the truth. After going about a mile we came to an unfortunate fellow-being who had a smashed wagon loaded with merchandise. We asked him the distance to Riverside, he said twelve miles, and that he knew the road well as he was teaming between Newport and San Bernardino. We did not think much of the knowledge of
PACIFIC COAST NEWS.
The Point Planing Mill at Oakland was destroyed by fire last Saturday.
Elise Mattean, three years old, was run over by a locomotive at Oakland on Wednesday, and killed.
Seven cases of small-pox were reported at the Health Office in San Francisco on Tuesday. Among them was one from the County Jail.
Edward Hamblett, a farm overseer, committed suicide by jumping into a vault in McCoy’s livery stable, Marysville. He was suffocated, though almost immediately rescued. The act was committed in a fit of alcoholic delirium.
A Central Pacific freight train was attached near Marysville on Thursday, by the Sheriff of Sutter county for delinquent taxes. The company gave bonds and the train was allowed to proceed.
A man named E. Elliott, residing three miles east of Petaluma, died suddenly upon the street on Monday, it was supposed from apoplexy. The deceased has resided here about one year. He was apparently about 60 years old, and leaves a wife and children.
H. T. Bradley, aged 7 years, while playing on Tuesday in his father’s yard on San Pablo avenue, fell into a well and was drowned. The body was recovered an hour after. The Coroner rendered a verdict of accidental death.
Dr. E. W. Woodward, a dentist of respectable standing in San Francisco, shot a woman known as Mollie Woodward, with whom he has been cohabiting, inflicting a dangerous wound. He then shot himself dead. The cause is said to be jealousy, and the refusal of the woman to become his wife.
At Hill’s Ferry, on Monday, W. M. Miles, while at the store of Simon Newman, was struck in the face with a pistol by a Mr. Hubbell. Hubbell was seized and ordered out of the store. As Mr. Miles was leaving the store Hubbell met him on the porch and drew his revolver, when Miles fired, killing Hubbell instantly. The Coroner’s jury
Progress of the Chinese Bill.
WASHINGTON, April 23th.—The Senate struck out the fifteen section, which defines Chinese laborers to mean both skilled and unskilled laborers and Chinese engaged in mining. The vote agreeing to this committee amendment was 29 yeas and 28 nays.
The Senate, by vote of 32 nays against 26 nays, rejected the Foreign Relations Committee amendment, which proposed to strike out the fourteenth section of the bill. This section prohibits Chinese naturalization.
WASHINGTON, April 26.—After showing that Chinese skilled labor is precisely the kind which is most injurious to our interests, Farley became engaged in a long colloquy with Dawes about the labor experiment with Chinese in Massachusetts, and at 4 o’clock yielded to a motion made by Edmunds, for an executive session, which was agreed to. The bill accordingly goes over until to-morrow.
WASHINGTON, April 27.—On the opening of the Senate this morning discussion on the Chinese bill was continued by Farley. His speech was frequently interrupted by the Massachusetts Senators, who desired to correct alleged misstatements concerning the North Adams Chinese experiment, and by the reception of a message from the President about the Arizona troubles. Farley concluded at 3:20 and Dawes then took the floor. He spoke very briefly and was followed by Vest, who made an eloquent speech in favor of the measure.
The presentation of a conference report on the Postoffice Appropriation bill and some debate on it prevented action on the Chinese bill to-day; and it went over at 5 o’clock until to-morrow.

He had been peddling or doing some business of that kind and he supposed he would know the distances of places in the vicinity. We asked the distance from where we were to Riverside and he said twenty-two miles. We thought he was stretching it a little, but we wanted to know the truth. After going about a mile we came to an unfortunate fellow-being who had a smashed wagon loaded with merchandise. We asked him the distance to Riverside, he said twelve miles, and that he knew the road well as he was teaming between Newport and San Bernardino. We did not think much of the knowledge of the native after that, guessed he did not know what a mile was, and poked fun at the old fellow. But those twelve miles! If that teamster wants a horse to give him a good kick just let him get behind old Prince and tell him that it is only twelve miles from the head of Santa Ana canyon to Glenwood Cottage in Riverside.
As soon as we arrived in view of Teescal Valley the wind began to blow. It was cold and disagreeable. The nearer we got to Riverside the harder it blew, and the colder it got. It blew after we got there and all the time we were there, and from what we heard from residents there it is blowing yet. In fact they acknowledge that it blows all the time, cold in winter and spring and awful hot in summer.
About five o'clock we came to Magnolia avenue. It is several miles long and lined on either side with beautiful evergreen trees, while in the center there is a line of pepper trees. By keeping on the east side of the avenue we avoided somewhat the force of the gate. The roads were in fine condition and are kept so by constant sprinkling and work. Many of the residences along the avenue were beautiful and imposing, with finely laid out grounds and beautiful flowers and shrubs. Many new buildings were being erected, and the prospect is that before many years the drive along that avenue will be the most beautiful and interesting in the State.
About seven o'clock we reached Glenwood Cottage, a quiet and pleasant place for any one to tarry—that is as quiet as the wind would let it be. The town proper is small and uninteresting; is located on a bluff or mesa near the hills. The view is pleasant. There are no guats there—the wind blows them away. It would blow a stranger away, too, if he is not careful.
I tried to make some inquiries about business and the prospects of opening a small store of some kind, hardware for instance, but as soon as I said small all interest ceased. People in Riverside do not care to talk with any one worth less than fifty thousand and their whole attention cannot be secured except by a millionaire. I therefore concluded it was not the place for me.
I might have become accustomed to the continual wind and to the heat of summer, but my better-half and myself thought that no consideration would induce us to live where we would be compelled to use such water. In general, all use water from the ditch brought from the Santa Ana river seventy-five miles known as Mollie Woodward, with whom he has been cohabiting, inflicting a dangerous wound. He then shot himself dead. The cause is said to be jealousy, and the refusal of the woman to become his wife.
At Hill's Ferry, on Monday, W. M. Miles, while at the store of Simon Newman, was struck in the face with a pistol by a Mr. Hubbell. Hubbell was seized and ordered out of the store. As Mr. Miles was leaving the store Hubbell met him on the porch and drew his revolver, when Miles fired, killing Hubbell instantly. The Coroner's jury brought in a verdict of justifiable homicide.
The Colby farm, four miles north of Marysville, has just been sold to the Sacramento Bank under foreclosure of mortgage for $90,000, being some $50,000 less than the amount due. A few years ago this was among the most valuable lands in the county, but owing to slickens from mines it has now but a nominal value, as the whole 3100 acres sold for the above sum.
A shooting affray occurred at Lundy, Inyo county, on Wednesday, between James Slack and Michael Egan, both miners. Slack was shot four times and died on Thursday. Egan was shot in the right hand and right side, but is not dangerously wounded. Slack was a quarrelsome man and killed John Clark in Lundy, two years ago. Egan long lived in Virginia City and was considered a peaceable citizen.
The workmen of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Company struck a "bonanza" the first part of the week, in the form of a number of shallow wells of pure running water. Water was needed along the line of the track for various purposes, and boring has been diligently prosecuted. The wells referred to are about twelve miles east of Mohave. In one of them water was found at a depth of twenty-eight feet, but boring was continued forty further, in order to insure a good supply. These wells are of great value to the Railroad Company, as they will be needed constantly for supplying the engines and for purposes of irrigation around the stations.
The San Bernardino Times says that Joseph O. Osgood, Chief Engineer of the California Southern Railroad, telegraphed last Monday to W. H. Sloan, the contractor, to begin at once and complete the grade of the road to Colton. This means, we suppose, that there is no longer any "hitch" about the right of way. The section to be graded is only about four miles. There is also a bridge 1,500 feet long, to be built across the Santa Ana. When these two "small jobs" are completed, nothing will be left to be done but to lay less than twenty miles of track. If the rails are on hand, connections will be made in a few weeks. The arrival of the bark Petingill at San Diego from New York last Monday completes the supply of rolling stock—which consists of ten locomotives, and all the necessary passenger coaches, box and flat cars, etc. Inside of a month we may safely pre-bill to-day; and it went over at 5 o'clock until to-morrow.

store of some kind, hardware for instance, but as soon as I said small all interest ceased. People in Riverside do not care to talk with any one worth less than fifty thousand and their whole attention cannot be secured except by a millionaire. I therefore concluded it was not the place for me.
I might have become accustomed to the continual wind and to the heat of summer, but my better-half and myself thought that no consideration would induce us to live where we would be compelled to use such water. In general, all use water from the ditch brought from the Santa Ana river several miles away. It is warm and riley, and to us who are used to pure artesian water it had a disagreeable taste. We heard a horrid story regarding it in San Bernardino. Last fall the water got to smelling and tasting so badly that it became necessary to discover the cause. The result was a dead squaw was found in the ditch a few miles away, whose body was much decomposed. Imagine the aristocracy of Magnolia avenue drinking aquaw water! Even now I understand that any day Indians can be seen wading in the ditch and in summer they bathe in it every day. Wells have been sunk and water obtained, but it is so brackish that it cannot be used for household purposes. One artesian well such as we have is worth more than all such water in the Riverside country, except for irrigation. Squaw water must be very good and fertile for irrigating purposes.
I have come to the end of my space. Will finish Riverside next week and then continue my travels to San Bernardino.

Little Rock, April 24th.—The Gazette's Dallas special says: News was received this afternoon that one of the Texas and Pacific train robbers has been captured and is supposed to be mortally wounded. He is the son of a respectable old farmer living near the scene of the robbery, and was shot in a fight with the Texas rangers. His father last night informed the rangers of the whereabouts of his wayward son, requesting his arrest, stating that he would prefer to have him an inmate of a penitentiary to being a member of gang of robbers.

Center Street,
Being satisfied that the credit business is detrimental both to the merchant and consumer, I have positively resolved to stop it after the 1st day of September, 1881, and confine myself to a strictly cash basis. For this purpose I will sell goods at the lowest market rates possible, for Cash or Produce, and feel assured that it will be for the benefit of all parties.
Thanking my customers for their liberal patronage in the past, I would respectfully solicit a continuance of the same in the future.
All persons knowing themselves to be indebted to me will please come forward and make a settlement at their earliest convenience.

THE GREAT STORM
Of January 12th, 1882, which injured or destroyed scores of Windmills in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the
CALIFORNIA WINDMILL
In the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy gale. Although some of nearly every other manufacture was destroyed, so far as known one of the California Mills put up by the understated escaped injury. These Mills are so strongly made and so perfectly self-regulating that, when properly put up, it is almost impossible for a storm to injure them. It is also superior to other Mills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE (4 different lengths) in the case and no lessness of its work, in the beauty of its design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold. I will furnish these Mills with Pumps and Tanks and set them up in complete running order at the lowest possible rate. For further particulars call upon or address
